Overview

This national-scale initiative elevates seven UNESCO sites into a unified, accessible network tailored for the growing cycle tourism market.

Drawing inspiration from authentic Langobard decorative art, the design system achieves national recognition without imposing uniformity. Translating historical territory-specific patterns onto a modular framework, from cycling milestones to the custom-crafted "Longobardi Corner" infopoints, the project blends heritage with functional design.

Serving as the single point of contact across seven municipalities, I designed the cycle routes, developed the visual system, and managed the €750k budget from concept to on-site execution.
